How can you prepare yourself for dangerous situations?

When you travel and work abroad, you want to focuss on your mission. You do not want to worry if you can handle an aggressive situation or deal with an medical emergency.

The Basic Course Light gives you the tools and confidence to deal with such issues. Using practical exercises and realistic simulations in a safe learning environment we give you an steep learning experience.

Practice through hyper-realistic simulations

We believe that the steepest learning curve is obtained by practising in realistic simulations.

Our specialists offer you the chance to respond to threatening situations in a safe environment.

These simulated exercises are so realistic that you will feel they are really happening. Together, we navigate these situations and through practical feedback learn how to manage them.

Safe learning environment

Anyone can take part in our training. Your personal safety and well-being are our primary concern.

Before and during the course, you can share prior experiences with the trainers or the host. They can discreetly adapt the course for you to make sure this will be the best and safest learning experience you ever had.

Because there is a host present at the course (apart from the trainers) we make sure you can take a time-out whenever you need one. Out of the situation and the group, the host is able to support you.

The trainers and host support you in your learning process. If you need extra personal guidance, there is time for additional support.
